A "complete" for your course looks much better to prospective employers on the resume than "DNF' - so good for that reason. The other thing is - nothing (or close to it) you learn at uni will be directly used in employment. Uni should teach you to teach yourself, teach you to think and teach you to communicate. I would even encourage you to do the 3D subjects etc, as it will be a paradigm shift to some extent - broaden your mind into other ways of thinking / approaching problems. Good luck :) Aaron ***************************************************** The discussion list for http://webstandardsgroup.org/ See http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm for some hints on posting to the list & getting help *****************************************************
